Schema to Scaffold

This Gem shall generate rails commands strings based on a rails database schema you already have.
Generated string commands available are:
rails generate scaffold <model_name> <field[:type]>
rails generate factory_girl:model <ModelName> <field[:type]>

Important: This gem will not run code for you. It will only generate a string for you to copy and paste

Use your schema.rb file from <rails_app>/db or generated with rake db:schema:dump You can rename schema.rb to schema_your_fav_name.rb that I will find it to. This will prevent schema.rb from being overwritten when one run rake db:migrate.

SchemaToScaffold will generate rails scaffolding scripts by table like this:

rails g scaffold users fname:string lname:string bdate:date email:string encrypted_password:string

Installation
